Blended Baked Oats
Description
This recipe blends rolled oats with milk, brown sugar, ripe banana, egg, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt to create a smooth batter that bakes evenly. The use of ripe bananas adds natural sweetness and moisture, which balances the hearty oats and lightens the texture. Mini semisweet chocolate chips folded into the batter and sprinkled on top provide small pockets of chocolate that contrast with the mellow oat base.
The mixture is portioned into greased ramekins placed on a baking sheet to catch any spills. Baking at 375°F until the surface springs back when pressed results in a soft, cake-like oatmeal suitable for individual servings. The dish is ideal for a warm breakfast or snack that can be prepped ahead and refrigerated if desired.
The recipe allows milk of any kind, including plant-based alternatives. Adjusting the sweetness is possible by varying the brown sugar amount or using ripe bananas for natural sugar. Serving directly from ramekins keeps portions controlled and presentation simple.
